This may be a very stupid question, but are there no ad networks that are more trustworthy?
tl;dr no. AdSense sucks, but all other networks are actually worse. (There are tiny ad networks that are actually trustworthy, e.g. Project Wonderful, but they won't make you a living.)
You could look at something like Project Wonderful, but I think they're a little more geared towards small-scale niche advertising (gaming, comics, blogs).
Actually, never mind. I just looked and their top 5 sites are all well under 1,000,000 page views - and 4 of the 5 are webcomics plus Omegle which I think is one of those random chat sites that popped up a few years ago.
